This is a collection of works published by Shotenkenchikusha in 1972, "New Material: Discoveries of Quality and Form, Cities, Architecture, and Interiors." Shotenkenchikusha is known for publishing magazines such as "Shotenkenchiku," which introduces the latest commercial space designs, but in 1972, they also launched the legendary architecture magazine "TAU" (Trans-Arxhitecture & Urban Phenomena), and engaged in avant-garde activities in response to the trend of the era when photography and art were also experiencing turbulent movements. In this context, the year 1972 was marked by particularly conceptual publications, such as the special issue of "Urban Exteriors," which was a collaboration with artists, as a special issue of Shotenkenchiku in April. This was also published in May of the same year, and contains content that refers not only to the possibilities of materials but also to the possibilities of cities, and is depicted with avant-garde images, making it a book full of content that can be considered the prologue to TAU's editing. This is the third edition published in 1974.
